OK, How about this. Starting at 8 PM EST tonight lasting until 8 PM Sunday night, let's see if WE can try out a "no insult to each other zone". This ain't no contest, it's just a friendly challenge. I know, it's tough, but I wouldn't ask anybody to do something I wouldn't do my own self.
You up for it?
After you...

Can we still insult ideas? I am (and always have, with few if any offenses) always on board with staying away from personal insults. I do, regularly, insult ideas. "That idea is stupid". "That is a ridiculous, insane, crazy decision". Those still good?

Like if one refers to a bozo as a bozo, that's not really an insult. It's an observation. |

It's an observation. Attack the idea with facts, NOT the poster. You may say something like "THAT statement is absurd because...". As opposed to "You're a poopy head for even saying THAT!" Give it a go. Greg |

This is how I have been posting for years (as you know from our recent interaction on your thread this week  ).
I find it feels much better to know that you are treating people with respect, even if you are not doing the same with their arguments. Makes for more polite discussion. |

Now, what do you have against RWB?
You just eliminated 99% of his posts.

Mixing two threads here.
"But, that aside, let me say that I swear, on the souls of my grandchildren, that I will not be the one to break the peace we have made here today."
Ok, who said it?

Request denied. We already have a movie quote thread over in The Breeze department. If you want a thread for non-movie quotes, perhaps you could create one there?
Or are you just craving attention?
